Maserati writes a new chapter in its history by expanding its Trofeo collection. Following the 2018 launch of Levante Trofeo, the SUV’s most ex-treme, most powerful version, the new Quattroporte and Ghibli Trofeo are now avail-able, achieving the pinnacle of performance, sportiness and luxury.To highlight once again Mase-rati’s all-Italian identity, the colours chosen for the Trofeo collection launch are those of the country’s flag: green for Quattroporte, white for Le-vante and red for Ghibli, which combine with the burnished chrome-work and glossy red trims for a particularly aggres-sive and elegant look. Maserati reinterprets its se-dans by introducing the V8 engine.The heart of Ghibli and Quat-troporte Trofeo is the 3.8 l V8 Twin Turbo with power output of 580 hp at 6,250 rpm and peak torque of 730 Nm.The engine, which has al-ready revealed all its power on Levante Trofeo, is built at the Ferrari plant at Maranello

to Maserati’s specifications, and has been modified and developed to deliver equally impressive performances on the rear-engine sedans. Although completely new for Ghibli, the V8 engine has al-ready been used in the past on Quattroporte GTS, in the 530 hp version. Today the 580 hp V8 engine is available on the new Ghibli, Quattroporte and Levante* Trofeo, in full compliance with fuel efficien-cy and emissions standards.Ghibli and Quattroporte Tro-feo can proudly claim to be the fastest Maserati sedans ever, with a top speed of 326 km/h. Levante Trofeo’s maxi-mum speed is 302 km/h.Like Levante Trofeo, the new Ghibli and Quattroporte Tro-feo also incorporate the Inte-grated Vehicle Control (IVC) system, with a specific setup that guarantees enhanced driving dynamics, greater active safety and even more thrilling performance. The se-dans have the Corsa button that sets the car for an even sportier driving style. Also included is Launch Control, a

function that first appeared on Levante Trofeo, to unleash all the engine’s power and deliv-er breath-taking performance and an authentic Maserati driving experience.While the unique signature of every Maserati is the sound of its engine, now the Trofeo collection will be even more unmistakable in looks, thanks to special stylistic touches that characterise these high performance models. These include the front grille with twin vertical bars in Black Pia-no finish, and the introduction of carbon fibre on the front air duct trims and rear extractor, for an even more aggressive effect. The whole Trofeo collection is distinguished by the red details that characterise the bottom profiles of the side air vents and the lightning bolt on the Trident badge on the C-pil-lars. There are major changes at the rear of the car, where the light clusters have been com-pletely restyled, with a boo-merang-like profile inspired by the 3200 GT and the Alfieri

concept car.In terms of the Ghibli Trofeo, the bonnet has also been restyled, featuring two ag-gressive air ducts for better cooling, just like on Levante Trofeo. Ghibli and Quattroporte Tro-feo are fitted with 21” alumini-um Orione wheels. 22” Orione wheels are available on Le-vante Trofeo. The ADAS system has evolved to include new func-tions, and thanks to Active Driving Assist, the assisted driving function can now be activated on urban roads and ordinary highways.New technologies also ap-pear in MIA (Maserati Intel-ligent Assistant), the multi-media screen with upgraded resolution and larger size - 10.1” on both Ghibli Tro-feo and Quattroporte Trofeo, while Levante retains the 8.4” display, but with improved resolution and graphics. Fur-thermore, thanks to the Mase-rati Connect programme, now the Trofeo collection is always connected, with a full set of services to simplify its use.Ghibli and Quattroporte Tro-feo will be built at the Avvo-cato Giovanni Agnelli Plant (AGAP) at Grugliasco (Turin), and Levante Trofeo at the Mirafiori (Turin) plant.

MG MOTOR PREPARING TO INTRODUCE INTERNET-CONNECTED CARS TO THE MIDDLE EASTMG Motor has confirmed that it is planning to bring inter-net-connected cars to the Middle East from as early as 2021. The British-born brand, which has enjoyed exception-al growth across the region over the past couple of years, is benefiting from major in-vestment in this new technol-ogy by its parent company, SAIC Motor.SAIC Motor is a pioneer in the field of intelligent car de-

velopment, with significant experience exploring and deepening the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tech-nology and the automobile industry. Through its various sub-brands, the company has already sold more than 1.7 mil-lion internet-connected cars in markets around the world, and is now focused on exploring ways of developing intelligent driving technology that is tech-nically reliable, affordable,

safe and controllable.New technologies like AI are set to drive the continuous im-provement and upgrading of automotive products and ser-vices. Customers will expect more from the driving expe-rience in the future, and SAIC Motor is developing a new in-telligent cockpit with 5G tech-nology that will increase inter-action between the car and the driver, so that the car truly be-comes an intelligent and con-

venient mobile terminal.From the perspective of tech-nological development, “de-fining a car by its software” is becoming mainstream, making it essential for car companies to adapt. Soft-ware is not only core to the development of the auto in-dustry from “electric” to “in-telligent network”, but also key to the differentiation of future automotive products and services.


Hyundai Motor Group announced new technologies to improve the quality of air in vehicles and create a more pleas-ant indoor environment for customers. Recognizing the growing concern about air quality, the Group unveiled three new air-conditioning technolo-gies – ‘After-Blow’, ‘Multi-Air Mode’, and ‘Fine Dust Indicator’. The tech-nologies will be introduced initially on select models in Korea and expand to upcoming Hyundai vehicles worldwide in the future.

After-Blow Technology ‘After-Blow’ dries the condensate on the evaporator and suppresses mold growth in the air-conditioning system, which can cause an odor during hot weather.After the engine is turned off and the condensate on the evaporator drains naturally for about 30 minutes, ‘Af-ter-Blow’ activates for 10 minutes to dry the evaporator and any conden-sate leftover in the air passage. The air-conditioning system automatical-ly allows influx of outside air during this time to prevent humidity from building up.The technology uses an intelligent bat-tery sensor (IBS) to monitor the battery and stops functioning when the battery is low, allaying any concerns about batter discharge. It also de-activates when the air conditioning system is not in use for a certain period of time, or when the outside temperature is low.

Multi-Air Mode Technology ‘Multi-Air Mode’ uses multiple vents for air conditioning and heating to create a more pleasant indoor environment with gentle wind.When this mode is activated, the air is dispersed to the newly added multi-air slots in the driver and passenger seats in addition to the normal air vents. The overall wind volume remains the same, but the dispersion of wind reduces di-rect air contact and softens the air.This mode can be switched on and off

based on the preference of the driver.

Fine Dust Indicator Technology‘Fine Dust Indicator’ measures the air inside the vehicle in real time and delivers digitized information, allow-ing the driver to better manage the air quality.The indicator displays the concentra-tion and pollution level of ultrafine par-ticles (PM 2.5) inside the vehicle using integer numbers and colors for better visibility to the user: blue for 0 to 15 μg/m3, green for 16 to 35 μg/m3, or-ange for 36 to 75 μg/m3, and red for 76 μg/m3 or higher.If the level of ultrafine particles exceeds 36 μg /m3 while the function is active, the air-cleaning mode will run to purify the air in the vehicle. The air-cleaning system automatically sets the air vol-ume between 3 and 8 and switches to

air-recirculation mode and activates the air conditioning system to reduce indoor humidity. If the air does not im-prove in air-cleaning mode, it can also serve as a reminder to the driver to re-place air-conditioner filters or to clean contaminated seats and mats.

As part of its endeavours to ensure the wellbeing of its customers, MG Motor in the Kingdom of Bahrain, has recently launched a sterilisation campaign that includes its entire MG ve-hicles. The drive reflects the end-less support to the na-tional efforts dedicated to combating the outbreak of the novel Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, and comes in compliance with the directives issued by international health or-ganisations, which highly advise sanitisation as one of the key tools to fight the spread of the virus. Every new MG vehicle sold in Bahrain will be fully ster-

ilised by highly-qualified professionals before it is delivered to the customer. The sterilisation process will be done in accordance with the highest interna-tional standards in this regard and includes door handles, boot and the en-tire interior of the vehicle, such as the steering wheel, dashboard, stereo and navigation display screen, air conditioner switches and vents, seatbelts, floor mats and gear stick. Additionally, each retail customer will instantly re-ceive personal protective gear, such as facemasks and hand gloves, demon-strating profound concern about customers’ health.

Hyundai Motor Company today announced the launch of its new IONIQ brand dedicat-ed to battery electric vehicles, opening a new chapter as a leader in the era of elec-trified mobility. Under the IONIQ brand, Hyundai will offer customer centric EV ex-periences centered on connected lifestyle solutions in line with Hyundai’s vision of ‘Progress for Humanity’. Under the IONIQ brand, Hyundai Motor will leverage its industry-leading manu-facturing know-how in EVs to introduce three new dedicated models over the next four years with more innovative models to follow.

Rebirth of IONIQHyundai first introduced the term IONIQ, which fuses “ion” and “unique”, when it announced Project IONIQ, a long-term re-search and development project focused on eco-friendly mobility. Based on the project, Hyundai in 2016 introduced a ve-hicle named IONIQ, the world’s first and only model to offer a choice of three elec-trified powertrain options – hybrid elec-tric, plug-in hybrid and battery electric – within a single body type. Now, IONIQ represents Hyundai’s growing commit-

ment to sustainability and innovation and will be instrumental in achieving the com-pany’s clean mobility goals.IONIQ brand was conceived to fuse life changing mobility with environmental performance and has so far been instru-mental in delivering progress electrified. IONIQ will continue to create a new bal-ance in clean mobility synchronizing eco-products within an eco-system of life-style solutions bringing connected living to a new generation. The existing IONIQ vehicles – hybrid, PHEV, EV – will not be housed under the new IONIQ brand.

IONIQ 5 / IONIQ 6 / IONIQ 7Hyundai will be launching a range of numerically named EVs under the new brand, with the even numbers used for sedans and the odd numbers for SUVs. The first model under the IONIQ brand will be the IONIQ 5 midsize CUV that will launch in early 2021. IONIQ 5 is based on the concept EV “45”, which Hyundai unveiled at the International Motor Show (IAA) 2019 in Frankfurt as a homage to its very first concept car. IONIQ 5’s design-ers took inspiration from the past and integrated it with cutting-edge paramet-ric pixels, a unique design element that Hyundai designers will continue to incor-porate into future IONIQ models.In 2022, Hyundai will introduce IONIQ 6 sedan, which is based on the company’s latest concept EV “Prophecy”, unveiled in March; followed by IONIQ 7, a large SUV in early 2024. Prophecy’s iconic exterior design is characterized by its aerodynam-ic silhouette of perfect proportions.Likewise, IONIQ vehicles’ designs will have a common theme of “Timeless Val-ue”. The vehicles will be inspired by past

models, but they will be a bridge to the future.

E-GMP platformIONIQ brand models will sit on an Elec-tric Global Modular Platform, known as E-GMP, that will enable fast charging ca-pability and plentiful driving range.The EV-dedicated platform will allow Hyundai to reimagine the vehicle inte-rior as “smart living space” with highly adjustable seats, wireless connectivity and unique features such as a glove box designed as drawers. The platform para-digm shift will extend into the user inter-faces that will be simple, intuitive and er-gonomically designed to help occupants feel at ease.

Strategy 2025Hyundai Motor Group recently announced that the group aims to sell 1 million units of battery electric vehicles and take 10 percent share to become a leader in the global EV field by 2025.Under Strategy 2025, Hyundai Motor Com-pany itself aims to become the world’s third-largest automaker of eco-friendly vehicles by 2025, with 560,000 BEV sales in addition to FCEV sales.The launch of the IONIQ brand dedicated to EV models reinforces the company’s commitment to clean mobility and reflects its ongoing transformation as a Smart Mobility Solution Provider with zero-emis-sions solutions.

HYUNDAI MOTOR WINS 2020 FUTURE MOBILITY OF THE YEAR AWARDS

Hyundai Motor Company today won two 2020 Future Mobility of the Year (FMOTY) Awards for HDC-6 NEPTUNE and the company’s built-in e-scooter. Established by the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) Graduate School for Green Transportation in 2019, the awards recognize concept vehicles that make outstanding contributions to the future of mobility. FMOTY awarded the hydrogen-pow-ered fuel cell heavy-duty truck HDC-6 NEPTUNE in the ‘Public & Commercial’ category and the built-in e-scooter in the ‘Personal’ category. Sixteen judg-es, including top automotive journal-ists from 11 countries, selected Hyun-dai Motor’s submissions from a total of 71 concepts that have debuted at inter-national motor shows for consideration in three categories: Private, Public & Commercial, and Personal. The judges lauded Hyundai Motor’s concepts for introducing innovative transport tech-nologies and services for the future of mobility.HDC-6 NEPTUNE, which debuted at the

North American Commercial Vehicle Show last November, took inspiration from the iconic Art Deco streamliner railway trains of the 1930s. The con-cept embodies Hyundai Motor’s vision for a zero-carbon emission future as the company leads a paradigm shift to eco-friendly commercial vehicles. As the demand for zero-carbon and eco-friend-ly commercial vehicles is expected to increase gradually, FMOTY judges showed support for the first concept ve-hicle to incorporate hydrogen fuel cell power into commercial delivery.The built-in e-scooter, which debuted as a prototype at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in 2017, is currently being considered as an option for future vehi-cles. As its name suggests, the electric scooter will be integrated into vehicles, charging itself while the car is operating to provide the last-mile mobility – a fea-ture the judges regarded highly in addi-tion to its great build quality.“HDC-6 NEPTUNE is like an ambassa-dor concept vehicle that illuminates Hyundai Motor’s top status and prow-ess in next-generation fuel-cell electric

vehicles and fuel-cell technology,” said SangYup Lee, Senior Vice President and head of the Hyundai Global Design Center. “It embodies Hyundai Motor’s vi-sion and customer value as the leader of global hydrogen mobility industry in its futuristic design.”This year’s FMOTY ceremony took place at the KAIST Academic Cultural Com-plex in Daejeon, attended by SangYup Lee, Senior Vice President and Head of the Hyundai Global Design Center; Hak Soo Ha, Design Director at Hyundai Mo-tor Group; and Dong Jin Hyun, Head of Robotics Lab at Hyundai Motor Group.Last December, Hyundai Motor unveiled its ‘Strategy 2025’ roadmap, under which the company will develop Smart Mobility Devices and Smart Mobility Services as the twin core pillars of its business.
